THE COLONIES NEWS
BRADFORD COLONY 1 & 2
(BC1&2) NEWS FROM THE BOARD
ANNUAL DUES & LATE FEES
We want to thank those who have already paid the 2019 annual dues
and for those who have not, a late fee and interest will be imposed and
added to your outstanding balance by 2/1/19. These fees are added if
your payment is not “posted” by 1/31/2019 - not post-marked or when
you mail it. Please send your payments as soon as possible to: Bradford
Colony HOA, c/o PMG - Houston, PO Box 3157, Houston, TX 77253-3157.
Dropping off your payment at the PMG office does not expedite the
posting. PMG office can only take your check and mail it for you - late
fees still applies. If you would like to arrange for and get approval for
a payment plan, please contact our management company manager
Maggie McKay immediately. If you have already signed up in TownSq,
you can log in to check your balance. I encourage everyone check their
balance just in case there is an error, you can contact our manager and
resolve the error as soon as we know of it.
ADDITIONAL FEES TO ACCESS POOL
In case you are not aware, your annual assessment does not include the
pool access. But if you are interested in using the pool, you can contact
the Colonies Recreation Association (contact information is listed in this
newsletter) and pay the pool fee to get access. They will print your pool
pass same time as you pay during the open house. The management
company of the Colonies Recreation Association can tell you when the
2019 Open House dates are.
BRADFORD COLONY SECTION 3
(BCS3) WHAT IS BCS3?
Some residents may be wondering about the differences between our
neighborhood (Bradford Colony Section Three or BCS3) and Bradford
Colony Sections 1 & 2.
These are two separate homeowner associations (HOA’s) with separate
management companies, governing documents, deed restrictions and
Boards of Directors. BCS3 was officially formed in 2001 by the builder
with the first resident related HOA meeting taking place in the summer of
2002 (when the first Board of Directors was elected).
Bradford Colony 1 & 2 was formed over 20 years earlier as a separate
entity with its own Board and management company.
BCS3 is composed of the 59 properties formed by the circle of streets
including Searston Drive, Vaughnville Drive and parts of Harcourt Bridge
Drive and Horsepen Bayou Drive. The neighborhood also includes
Harcourt Bridge Court.
Since the neighborhood was formed, over 65% of the homeowners in
BCS3 have changed. Over 25 different residents have served on the
Board of Directors and various committees. We have had five different
management companies. There have been a lot of changes over this time.
But what has remained consistent over the past 16+ years are the efforts
of the BCS3 residents to do their best to try to keep our neighborhood as
safe as possible while showing their pride in maintaining their properties
to the best of their efforts. This pride has served to maintain our property
values at their highest possible point over this time period.
The Board would like to thank everyone for their continued efforts to
make our small piece of Houston as good a place to live as possible.
(BCS3) 2019 HOME OWNERS ASSESSMENT
The Board would like to thank everyone who has paid their 2019
Assessment as of this date. Approximately 65% of the property owners
have made their payments prior to the requested deadline.
If you are reading this note and have yet to pay your 2019 Assessment,
please contact Theodora Daly at ACMP (281-855-9867) to make
arrangements to handle this financial obligation.
Please note that any costs associated with the collection of past due
assessments will be passed along to any delinquent property owners.
These expenses can add up and easily double or triple the original
assessment total if action is not taken to handle the necessary payments.
(BCS3) 2019 ANNUAL MEETING
The Annual meeting for our neighborhood is scheduled to take place on
Sunday, May 19 th at 7 PM. Look for more information about this meeting
in upcoming newsletters and postings.
(BCS3) DOG OWNERS - PLEASE NOTE
There are a lot of residents who walk their dogs through the
neighborhood. Please remember to pick up after your pets as necessary
during these travels around BCS3. This little bit of courtesy goes a long
way towards keeping our neighborhood as clean as possible. Plus, it is
the right thing to do!
(BCS3) CONTACT THE BOARD
As is the case with everything in our small neighborhood, every resident
should feel free to contact any Board member as to any issue or question
that you have about BCS3. Contact information for all the Board members
is located inside of this publication.
CHARLESTOWN COLONY
(CHC) NOTES FROM THE BOARD
Happy Saint Patrick’s Day & Spring Break!
Yard of the Month for March: Congratulations to 14202 Barkerview Ct.
HOA Annual Assessments: If you have not paid the annual HOA dues by
now, it is delinquent!
New Application: https://app.townsq.io: The management company
is using a new application which is much more robust than the previous
online website. To register for the application, the HOA account number
and an email address is needed. Within the application, HOA dues can be
paid, messages can be sent to the management company, other requests
for home improvement projects etc. can also be done by click or swipe.
Charlestown Colony Eye Sores: We are still seeing a lot of trash in the
park, abandoned and broken down vehicles in driveways and common
areas, commercial vehicles parked on streets, vehicles parked close to
stop signs and debris in driveways.
A Word from the HOA Board: We will be enforcing our deed restrictions
to the fullest extent. Fines and towing will be enforced. If you are in the
category above, please beware. Also, our association is spending more
money to collect payments that are delinquent. Association dues are
mandatory for all houses in Charlestown Colony. Help keep our legal costs
(and yours) low by paying your assessment on time. If you need to work out
a payment plan, please contact PMG prior to the due date to get one set up.
Charlestown Colony Park: Please contact the Board or PMG if you have
any information. Our community park is enjoyed by many of the residents
and their family members! It has bounced back since the days of Hurricane
Harvey! Let’s keep it looking amazing! There have been reports of trash
March 2019 | Colonies

and debris in the park where the trash cans were overflowing which is an
eye sore for the residents living around the park. Please remember to pick
up after ourselves. If you are using the park’s trash can as a personal trash
bin, please stop it and use your own trash cans.
Home Renovation Projects: It has been almost 19 months since Harvey
devastated Houston and for those who are still working on repairs, please be
conscious of our deed restrictions. The Architectural Review form is required
to complete exterior projects such as replacing fences, exterior painting and
pretty much any other exterior project attached to the home that can be
viewed from the street. The Architectural form can be obtained from Principle
Management Group Houston (PMG). We have all endured a lot due to the flood
and have probably filled out enough forms over the last few months to last a
life time. However, this form is just another step in the renovation process
and keeping the project on track. Our deed restrictions have these forms in
place to maintain the appearance of Charlestown Colony. If exterior projects
are completed without consent, the homeowner could be subject to make
changes such as repainting the house all over again which is costly and time
consuming. Most of the Architectural Review forms can be processed within
10 business days, but it could take up to 30 days. If it is urgent, please indicate
that on the form and include a phone number. PMG may be able to offer a
verbal, “yes” to get the project started while the form is being processed.
Debris Removal & Deed Restriction Violations: It is the homeowner’s
responsibility to remove trash and debris from the front of their home.
If more time is needed for repairs, the HOA Board and management
company will review these on a case-by-case basis. Please reach out to
the management company.
Got The Nextdoor App? https://nextdoor.com/ - It only takes a few
minutes to sign up and it helps keep everyone informed on current
events in our area. If you see something, say something, because we are
our best defense against crime and retaining our home values!
Report:
• Park Lights that are not working properly • Safety issues in common
areas • Suspicious activity • Abandoned Houses • Homes where recovery
efforts have not begun • Other Violations of our Deed Restrictions
Annual Dues Payment: Thank you to all who have paid your HOA dues! If HOA
dues have not been paid yet, expect a certified letter soon with penalties. In
order to avoid additional costs and fees, there are several options to make HOA
payments. As of February 1 st , unpaid annual dues are considered delinquent
and subject to late fees and penalties. Our management company has new
policies and procedures in place to collect on past due HOA assessments.
If these have not been paid yet, please make every effort to pay or make a
payment arrangement. The Board worked diligently to maintain our HOA dues
at $330 for 2019 although the neighborhood incurred additional expenses
caused by the flooding. There are several payment options available.

(YTC) COMMUNITY GARAGE SALE
Yes, it’s that time again, get started early and be ready, start now with
the Spring cleaning and get rid of all the unwanted clutter and any gently
used items you no longer want or need. This is a time we should work
together and watch out for each other, be mindful of the extra traffic and
people (kiddos too) walking in the street. This is a big event and we look
forward to it each time, this is a great way to make a little extra spending
money without ever leaving the house. Let’s do this!! Early Birds will be
there, be ready! March 29 th and 30 th . Rain or Shine
(YTC) EASTER CELEBRATION IN THE PARK
Come and join us at the park April 6 th from 11 AM to 1 PM. There will be

this a great event. Hope to see you there.

Judging for yard of the month will begin this month for April. We will

get out and make a difference, let’s get those minds working and those
hands dirty. Happy planting.
(YTC) FENCES
I have noticed some fences throughout the neighborhood that have been
stained with a colored stain, this is against the deed restrictions. Only

(YTC) BACKYARD ARTICLE
March Garden: • Mow the lawn when it needs it, then feed. • Watch out
for bluebonnets. They look like clover. Don’t mow them down. • Fertilize
everything. Water first, feed, then water again. • Plant color annuals
such as marigolds, fuchsias, petunias, osteospermum, perilla, bachelor
buttons, coleus, forget-me-nots, dusty millers, annual phlox, geraniums,
impatiens, begonias and more! • Plant Sun Perennials Shasta daisy,
verbena, coreopsis, lantana, perennial salvias, bee balm. • Spread a fresh
layer of mulch around trees, shrubs and beds to protect roots, retain
moisture and prevent weeds. • Clean birdbaths and feeders. Keep feeders
full!! Birds are hungry. • Put out hummingbird feeders. We are expecting
our first sighting any day now! To keep birds at your feeder, maintain a
fresh nectar supply and empty and wash the feeder each time you refill.
• Hummingbirds remember where they find a reliable food source - so if
your yard is one of them, they’ll often return year after year.
